What I learned yesterday from fishing at this location at Caesar's Creek is that the bass is feeding on crawdads. I didn't discover that until I cleaned ...more them. I thought one fish was filled with roe, except it was a crawdad in the stomach.
There are times when I fished this spot, and crawdads stole my bait and no fish were biting.
I learned to use a bobber to keep the hook out of reach from the bottom. Cast further out to stay in deeper water.
